The Ark of God < !signature-->as sun rests, a veil clears though we can see, we do not behold, and ancient knowledge remains the quiet comes, and the sound is there though it speaks to us we do not hear and yet our hearts hear the old truth darkness comes, and it brings us light though it shines our way we stumble on the path and yet the signs brightly show the way night shines, to give us wisdom and we are not alone in the cradle of heaven On the Ark of God James Parker Haley ©Dec 20, 1999 ** this is the first poem I posted at passions, and certain thoughts struck me that we may still be on the Ark (Earth) and still looking for that landing in the vast ocean of heaven.

Like this, Park, had not seen it before. Thanks for sharing it with us. Perhaps we aren't meant to actually see and hear it, but to perceive it. Corinne |

beautiful thoughts parker jm It's amazing How you make your face just like a wall How you take your heart and turn it off How I turn my head and you lose it all ... And it's unnerving (How one move just puts me by myself) There you go just trusting someone else (Now I know I put us both through hell) ... I'm not sayin That there was nothing wrong (I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me) And I'm not sayin (We ever had the right to hold on) (I just didn't wanna let you get away from me) ~MB20~ She says baby, It's 3AM ... I must be lonely, When she says baby, Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes, Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it. ~MB20~ |

Parker* This is a beautiful weave, thank you for reposting I had not had the pleasure of reading it before. "The Ark of God"...I had never thought of it that way before...but it is a perfect description. |
